Welcome.

A friend of mine suggested that I start a website: “Hey Kate, you are constantly trying new restaurants and people are constantly asking you for suggestions, why don't you start a blog or something?”This conversation occurred 8 months ago, and I’m just now getting around to it. But I promise you, what I lack in timeliness, I make up for in good taste. Also, did I mention that I’m a redhead and the friend who suggested the site is also a redhead? My need to include a reference to what I consider a strong component of my personality (ginger), led me to create The Ginger List.

In short, The Ginger List is an ever-expanding collection of reviews and resources of all things culinary in Chicago. Additionally, you can check out our blog, which offers a more editorialized, detailed account of several of the things featured on this site. Enjoy!
